No Chance of Remarriage: Get Lost

Chapter 1900 Not So Fond Anymore

"That's alright. Let it out."

He looked at the couple across from him and then at his tearful daughter in his arms.

Everyone in the village knew that the chief loved his daughter dearly.

In the end, he finally gave in. NôvelDrama.Org © content.

"I believe my body can withstand another Warriors' Tournament, and my precious daughter will wait for a hero to come and marry her," the village chief stated as he gently patted Anna's hand.

Anna sniffled and nodded.

She had made up her mind.

Anna realized she had been naive, spoiled and lost.

On the other hand, Elisa shone with her courage, intelligence, and compassion.

In fact, Anna's perception of Elisa changed after she cared for an injured wild rabbit.

Could a person who showed kindness to a helpless creature indeed be wicked?

And if not, what drove Anna to stand against Elisa?

As she watched their perfectly matched silhouettes, a question arose in Anna's mind that evening: Did she truly like Gareth?

It wasn't solely about affection; she wanted to be possessive.

Longing for something she couldn't have, Gareth became her fixation—a matter of conquest, nothing more.

Now that she had let go, her affection waned.

She wished she could be friends with Elisa instead.

With that in mind, Anna smiled at her.

A reciprocal smile from Elisa immediately dissolved the rift between them.

"Then, what do you want?"

The village chief inquired about Gareth's winning aspirations with the courtyard empty except for a few.

Despite their unspoken understanding, Gareth took a deep breath and met the chief's gaze with unwavering determination.

"The Nomadic Odyssey."

The request didn't surprise the village chief much, and he raised an eyebrow.

Gareth had anticipated a refusal and was ready to try to convince him.

To their surprise, the village chief readily agreed.

"Okay," he replied without hesitation, leaving even Anna shocked.

The excuse was swallowed down.

However, it was widely known that the "Nomadic Odyssey" was a treasure in the village, an item entrusted solely to the care of the village chief.

Was he suggesting it be brought out immediately?

Unusual circumstances often had hidden motives.

Indeed, the village chief's seemingly straightforward response to Gareth's demands was not so simple after all.

"However, the Nomadic Odyssey was merely on loan to you and must be returned," the village chief asserted.

"Of course," Gareth nodded firmly.

The village chief sneered like a cunning old fox.

He pointed at Elisa, "So she'll stay here, waiting for your return to exchange the Nomadic Odyssey for

her."

"No way," Gareth refused without hesitation.

There was no way that he would leave Elisa behind.

Elisa remained silent as she waited for the village chief's following words.

If her hunch was correct, he had another trick up his sleeve.

True enough, the village chief's smile grew deeper.

"Since you don't want her to stay, you must stay. Otherwise, I won't lend you the Nomadic Odyssey. You have to give me some assurance, right?"

"No."

Elisa finally spoke.

They came together, so how could one of them possibly leave alone? However, this time, Gareth didn't outright refuse. He requested some time to think it over.

The village chief shrugged, signaling them to do as they pleased.

He turned around with his hands behind his back. As he was about to leave, he muttered, "After all, it's not me who's in a hurry."

This statement skillfully encapsulated both parties' sentiments.

The village chief grumbled, "This isn't a cooperative attitude. Agreeing to some things and not others— how can we have a pleasant collaboration?"
